As per Jenna Tonnelli, NWSL club NJ/NY Gotham FC have signed Chelsea and Lioness defender, Jess Carter, on a multi-year deal until 2026.

Speaking to The Equalizer, Carter expressed that “I’ve always been interested in the NWSL – my dad’s side of the family is from here and ever since I was young I’ve paid a lot of attention to the league

“It was always about timing, but over the years I have seen the league grow in a really positive direction.”

The signing comes as a large surprise, as Chelsea are yet to announce the departure of the decorated defender.
